Condition report:
The vinyl LP sleeves exhibit varying degrees of age-related wear, including bumping to the corners, edge scuffing, and yellowing to the cream-coloured jackets. Some records are contained within protective clear plastic outer sleeves. The Great Modern Poets book and CD set remains in its original shrink-wrap. The internal vinyl discs have not been removed or inspected for scratches, warping, or playback quality; therefore, the discs are ungraded.
